Ye Olde Freeze & Thaw Cycle Shoppe of State College, Penna. is proud to display this stunning Grove Team Assault in our ever-growing "Innovations Archive".

BIG THANKS to our friend Jackie for loaning us her original race bike featuring one of the best paint jobs we've ever seen.

Our friend Tommy painted for Grove and told us that this was a Team-only paint scheme and that very few were made.

The crackle effect in the paint was achieved with a chemical applied over the clearcoat, creating a totally unique pattern each time. That product is no longer available, making this frame even more rare.

from Tommy:
"The company’s name was Vreeble. Basically it would shrink itself which would show the underlying paint color. Sprayed on top of a wet coat of clear which allowed it to shrink to the best result."

We've actually only seen one other Grove team bike like this in all of our years of collecting - this example is a real survivor for sure!
